Pin Description (numerical assorted)
Pin 1: Pulser OK
The state of this signal indicates weather the driver is ready (5 V) or it has an error pending
(0 V).
Pin 2: 5 V
This pin provides 5 Volts for external usage. Please note that the load should not exceed 10
mA, otherwise the voltage will drop.
Pin 3: GND
This pin is connected to ground.
Pin 4: U
diode
This signal provides near real time measurement of the laser diodes compliance voltage. The
scaling is 10 Volts per Volt measured into 1 MOhm.
Pin 5: GND
This pin is connected to ground.
Pin 6: Pulse
This signal is used in the external end external controlled trigger mode. Connect your external
trigger source to this pin. The signal amplitude should be within 3 to 6 Volts.
Pin 7: Enable
This signal is used to enable / disable the current output of the driver during operation.
It must be pulled low to reset an error condition or to re-enable the driver after Master Enable
was pulled low.
Pin 8: Master Enable
This signal is used as an interlock safety feature that disables the complete driver if set to 0 V
during operation. In order to re-enable the driver after this emergency shutdown the enable
signal must first set to 0 V.
If this feature is not required this pin can be connected to pin 2 (5 V).
Pin 9: I
diode
This signal provides near real time measurement of the laser diodes current flow. The scaling
is 200 Amperes per Volt measured into 1MOhm.
Pin 10: I
setpoint
This pin is not used in this driver.
